First Look: Rivals teases more drama ahead
David Tennant reprises his role as Lord Tony Baddingham in the 12-episode second season, continuing the fierce power struggle in 1980s British television, premiering May 15 on Disney+.
- Disney+ confirmed May 15 for the return of Tennant as Lord Tony Baddingham in Rivals Season 2, with a teaser released on Thursday.
- From the Rutshire Chronicles, last season's cliffhanger left Lord Baddingham lying in a pool of blood after Cameron Cooke struck him, leaving his fate uncertain.
- The trailer opens with Tennant saying 'Sorry I'm late, darling. I've had a terrible headache.' and features guest stars Hayley Atwell and Rupert Everett, as well as Danny Dyer's comment 'It's a bloody circus.'
- The second series will consist of 12 episodes and drop in two six-episode batches, streaming on Hulu in the US and Disney+ internationally for the UK audience.
- Set in the 1980s Cotswolds, Season 2 intensifies the Corinium versus Venturer fight for the Central South West television franchise while filming included Tetbury and last month a memorial honoured Dame Jilly Cooper.
